🚀 Elon Musk Doubles Down on Crypto: Solana Payments Coming to X Under New Product Head Nikita Bier

X just got serious about crypto payments—and Wall Street's about to get a migraine.

Elon Musk's everything-app taps former startup prodigy Nikita Bier to lead its payments revolution. The play? Bake Solana's blazing-fast blockchain into X's infrastructure before legacy finance finishes its third martini.

Why This Matters

Solana's 50,000 TPS throughput could make X the fastest payment app on earth—while Visa still runs on COBOL and prayers. Bier's track record scaling viral products suggests this isn't another crypto side project.

The Fine Print

Regulators already circling like vultures. Bank lobbyists drafting panic emails in ALL CAPS. And Dogecoin holders wondering if their 'official X currency' dreams just got SOL.

Bottom line: When the world's richest man hires a growth hacker to disrupt payments, maybe—just maybe—the 'ponzi scheme' is your 0.01% APY savings account.
